[TYPO3-team-core-v5] FLOW3 / Phoenix Planning Meeting -- Notes

[Sebastian Kurfürst]

Now, more nicely formatted hopefully:

*TYPO3 Phoenix Planning Meeting - 23.11.2011*


Agenda

shortly go through list
on http://forge.typo3.org/projects/typo3-v5-distribution-base/wiki/Wiki,
try to quickly discuss things (who does what, ...)

  * [FLOW3] Improve FLOW3 performance (Robert currently working on it,
    until christmas ;))
      o make sure we send proper cache headers
      o ESI support based on Fluid Widgets
      o Caching mechanism should not be an ugly hack in bootstrap -> so
        bootstrap will be refactored to be very thin
      o --> new bootstrap concept
      o MVC will also be refactored a little: "Web" and "CLI" in "Mvc"
        will be moved away
      o --> Robert will continue working on it as soon as Rasmus is gone
        and he is not sick anymore
      o Performance of AOP Proxy Building can also be improved; Robert
        has some ideas about it
      o Bastian tries some measures to improve performance on Windows
        (different file system, ...)

  * [FLOW3] Localization #11954 (Karsten working on it -- quite far
    already)
      o Label translation / Public API is being polished
      o still missing: conventions for XLIFF label keys; concept for
        translating command line output

  * [FLOW3] Admin Toolbar #30890 (Christian thinking about it, no
    implementation yet)
      o Christian has some ideas about it, checked some other admin
        tools for inspiration (f.e. Symfony); started with a wireframe
      o Christian will update the issue
      o Coding: in the next two weeks
      o Idea of Robert: Generate a "Clover" file for AOP / Security
        Policy Inspection --> this could be opened by IDE
      o --> Christian

  * [FLOW3] Documentation
      o Robert: HTTP Kernel
      o Karsten: Localization
      o Bastian will document stateless widgets & some not yet mentioned
        routing features
      o Rens: might be able to some doc if needed, just assign an issue
        with a part needing attention which is not too complex :)
        (command line chapter? )

  * [FLOW3] Concept for package Management -> currently open

  * [FLOW3] PHP Port of JSON schema #31277
      o Concept almost ready, can be implemented now
      o nice, separate task with clear boundaries
      o -> Rens will look into that

  * [Phoenix] Management /Other Views: #31639 (!!! for next sprint release)
      o Sebastian has created a basic prototype
      o We should use subrequest for the management view (different
        modules) since most of the management view would be plugins
      o No javascript in the beginning, only replace the page reloads
        with ajax
      o CSS Framework: http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/ - could be
        used for layout of the management view (layout, forms, etc.)
          + Should consult with Berit
      o http://html5boilerplate.com/ ?
      o Create a system view (user/group management) - create new
        backend user, modify users, delete etc.
      o (later) Create/integrate a page tree
      o -> Aske

  * [Phoenix] Rendering Process Refactoring: #31638(Sebastian, Robert,
    Christian) (!!! for next sprint release)
      o First ideas:
          + Prototype based inheritance
          + Strategy pattern to find current node & node can be
            explicitly defined
          + Selector syntax to target (sub-)collections (CSS selector
            syntax?)
      o -> Sebastian will continue with discussing this topic --> next
        step: TypoScript syntax definition

  * [Phoenix] Content Localization: #10515
      o --> we'll postpone it to next year

  * [Phoenix] Phoenix Sprint Release: #31644
      o we want a "phoenix" website (done by Andi), where we can publish
        the sprint release
      o --> Andi
      o Rens: just shout if you need help

  * [Phoenix] Links inside text towards other content: #13534
      o --> we'll postpone it to next year

  * [Phoenix] make Image Size adjustable in UI #30099 (Rens) (!!! for
    next sprint release)
      o there still is a recursion error, but basically it works (TODO
        Sebastian --> have a look at the error)

  * [Phoenix] Configurable access rights on nodes in UI #13545 (!!! for
    next sprint release)
      o --> Rens, next week

  * [Phoenix] Refactoring FE / BE communication towards more REST #29987
      o --> we'll postpone it, as it also interacts with Robert's HTTP
        refactorings

  * TODO Sebastian -> update Phoenix wiki start page

Who has how much time in the next weeks (for Phoenix // for FLOW3)

  * Robert: ~1 day/w Phoenix, 3 days/w FLOW3
  * Rens: ~1 day/w for both (could be more)
  * Markus  1day/w Phoenix
  * Aske: 1 day/w Phoenix
  * Sebastian: 1 day/w both, maybe more in the week before christmas

    transitions http://forge.typo3.org/issues/32032

      o Toolbar toggling (slidedown/up)
  * Error handling for "Publish Page"

    or 3 levels http://forge.typo3.org/issues/32034
